分享4条出口合同中信用证支付条款的具体订法

信用证支付条款的订法因进出口合同种类的不同而各异，又因信用证种类的各异而不同。仅选择几例来示范出口合同中信用证支付条款的具体订法。

　　1. 即期信用证支付条款：“买方应于装运月份前XX天通过卖方可接受的银行开立并送达卖方不可撤销的即期信用证，有效期至装运月份后15天在中国议付。”(The Buyers shall open through a bank acceptable to the Sellers an Irrevocable Sight Letter of Credit to reach the Sellers XX days before the month of shipment, valid for negotiation in China until the 15th day after the month of shipment.)

　　2. 远期信用证支付条款：“买方应于XX年X月X日前（或接到卖方通知后X天内或签约后X天内）通过XX银行开立以卖方为受益人的不可撤销（可转让）的见票后XX天（或装船日后XX天）付款的银行承兑信用证，信用证议付有效期延至上述装运期后15天在中国到期。”(The Buyers shall arrange with X X Bank for opening an Irrevocable (Transferable)banker's acceptance Letter of Credit in favour of the Sellers before……(or within…days after receipt of Seller's advice; or within…days after signing of this contract), The said Letter of Credit shall be available by draft (s) at sight (or after date of shipment) and remain valid for negotiation in China until the 15th after the aforesaid time of shipment.)

　　3. 假远期信用证支付条款：“本信用证项下的远期汇票由付款人承兑和贴现，所有费用由买方负担，远期汇票可即期收款。”Drawee will accept and discount usance drafts drawn under this Credit. All charges are for buyer's account, usance draft payable at sight basis.

　　4. 循环信用证支付条款：“买方应于第一批装运月份前通过卖方可接受的银行开立并送达卖方不可撤销即期循环信用证，该证在19XX年期间，每月自动可供XX（金额〕，并保持有效至19XX年1月15日在北京议付。”The Buyers shall open through a bank acceptable to the Sellers an Irrevocable Revolving Letter of Credit at sight to reach the Sellers X X days before the month of first shipment. The Credit Shall be automatically available during the period of 19XX for XX (value) per month, and remain valid for negotiation in Beijing until Jan.15, 19XX 
 
 这是从信用证项下是否随附货运单据划分的。
   （1）跟单信用证(Documentary Credit)是凭跟单汇票或仅凭单据付款的信用证。此处的单据指代表货物所有权的单据（如海运提单等），或证明货物已交运的单据（如铁路运单、航空运单、邮包收据）。

   （2）光票信用证(Clean Credit)是凭不随附货运单据的光票(Clean Draft)付款的信用证。银行凭光票信用证付款，也可要求受益人附交一此非货运单据，如发票、垫款清单等。

    在国际贸易的货款结算中，绝大部分使用跟单信用证。
